Could someone please tell me what is the earliest date that a die clash occurs on CBH?

Have you ever seen a die clash on a draped bust half (or early dollar)?

    Clashing occured on the first capped half dollars (1807 O.113) and most subsequent issues and is commonly found on flowing hair and draped coins also. It reached a peak in 1812-14 where the most extreme clashing occurs; according to some this was due problems with the feeder mechanism.
